FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The East Side Brogues are designed to standard UK sizing. If you typically wear a size 9, the UK 9 should fit comfortably.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, if you require specific arch support, the existing insoles can often be removed or covered with a thin orthotic insert.
How do I best clean the wooden stack sole?
Wipe the wooden portion with a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners on the wood.
Are these suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, once broken in, the leather forms to the foot for improved comfort during long days.
What is the best way to change the laces?
Simply unthread the current laces from the eyelets and guide the new pair through, ensuring they are pulled evenly for a symmetric look.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels stiff upon first wear
This is normal for high-quality leather. Wear them for short durations indoors to help soften the leather gradually.
Scuff marks on the surface
Use a high-quality leather cream or polish matching the blue hue to buff out minor surface scuffs.
Laces becoming frayed
The shoes come with two sets of laces. Ensure you keep the spare set stored in a cool, dry place for replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Joe Browns brogues last, proper care is essential. As these are genuine leather shoes, it is recommended to apply a leather conditioner periodically to prevent the material from drying out or cracking. Keep the wooden stack sole dry; if they become saturated in heavy rain, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to prevent the leather from hardening. When storing, use shoe trees to help maintain the shape and absorb moisture after a day of wear.
